The Daalarna Garden in Szentendre consists of three closely connected, cooled-heated ‘four-season’ spaces, seamlessly contiguous yet separable if required. These versatile areas are suitable for holding both intimate private gatherings and larger events.
The interior spaces (Barn, Atrium and Stone House), which exude timelessness and soothing harmony, offer a unique atmosphere, ensuring an exciting ‘five-star’ experience. The spaces are complemented by a contemporary wine cellar, conservatory, lavender field and a 6 x 21 metre pool featuring a mesmerising water mirror, illuminated and heated through solar cells.
Area: five hectares of parkland, including one hectare of lavender fields
Covered event area: 450 sq m (Atrium, Barn and Conservatory)
Millenáris is a park and a venue for exhibitions, plays, concerts and performances. The location is actually the reconstructed site of the one-time Ganz Electric Works, and you can still see parts of machinery that were used here. Today it is a modern recreation centre with exhibition halls, a park, ponds, cafés and a theatre, perfectly suitable for indoor and outdoor events.
Recently renovated, the monarchical, millennial Bazaar is one of the most central locations on the Buda side of the city. Its event hall, accessible via Fülkepavilon (Bayed Pavilion), offers a flexible, multipurpose space, ideal for a wide range of events, such as conferences, product tours, gala dinners, fashion shows, exhibitions, balls, theatrical plays and concerts. Historical features such as the original buttress and enlarged pieces from the “Hartmenn-Schedel World Chronicle” from 1493, which contains the first authentic depiction of Buda Castle, are complemented with state-of-the-art equipment. The space is connected to a three-level subterranean garage.
The Castle is the biggest museum of agriculture in Europe, located on Széchenyi Island in the leafy Városliget, just off Heroes’ Square. The eclectic historical building provides a fairy-tale setting.
Just outside Budapest, Gödöllő Castle’s cluster of buildings remains one of the most popular venues, accommodating hundreds of guests in a sophisticated environment, surrounded by a sprawling park. The main hall’s floral-patterned marble features are a visual feat and add a refined style to gala dinners and parties, as well as concerts. The former Royal Reception Hall seats 180–110 at seated dinners. The Riding Hall, renovated in 2010, is a rare venue in Europe: covering 636 sq m, this historical venue comes complete with two separate 80 sq m rooms.
Located in the Buda Hills, the museum is an impressive medley of buildings, dating back to the 18th century, with a quaint castle at its heart. The event venues in the cluster are an atmospheric chapel and the Sculpture Hall, the latter ideal for smaller groups.
The museum remains one of the biggest event spaces in Hungary. Its Orient Hall features unique overhead ironwork and has the atmosphere of historical railway stations.
